This summer, which I had willed to be a good season, turned out to be a very challenging season. I did accomplish quite a bit, though. I am immensely grateful for the cooler weather - although next week will be quite warm - but while I used to like the long nights when I was younger, I no longer do. The low sun and shorter days cause me to feel anxious and depressed. And I will miss baseball . But, it is what it is and I will do my best to enjoy the autumn.
